Stigg
Stigg is a product-led monetization platform that manages pricing plans, feature entitlements, and usage metering so SaaS teams can change packaging without code deploys.
Score Breakdown
⚙ Agent Friendliness
🔒 Security
API keys are environment-scoped (dev/prod) which reduces blast radius. No per-resource scoping available. Client-side tokens are publishable-key pattern with limited write access.
⚡ Reliability
Best When
You want to decouple entitlement logic from your application code so pricing and packaging changes can happen in a dashboard without engineer involvement.
Avoid When
Your billing model is simple enough that a single Stripe Products/Prices setup handles it without entitlement complexity.
Use Cases
- • Check whether a customer's subscription entitles them to access a specific feature before allowing an action
- • Provision a new subscription and grant feature access immediately after a user upgrades their plan
- • Report metered usage events (API calls, seats, compute) to track against plan limits in real time
- • Query current entitlement state to gate UI elements or API routes based on plan tier
- • Sync customer and subscription data from Stripe or Chargebee into Stigg as the entitlement source of truth
Not For
- • Payment processing or collecting credit card details — Stigg delegates payments to Stripe/Chargebee
- • General-purpose feature flagging with A/B testing or gradual rollouts unrelated to billing
- • Teams that need a full ERP or revenue recognition system
Interface
Authentication
Server-side API uses a secret API key passed as a Bearer token. A separate publishable client-side key is used for browser SDKs. Keys are scoped per environment (development vs. production).
Pricing
Free tier is suitable for early-stage products. Growth pricing is usage-based on number of paying customers.
Agent Metadata
Known Gotchas
- ⚠ Entitlement cache in the SDK may serve stale data for several seconds after a plan change — agents should invalidate or bypass cache after subscription mutations
- ⚠ GraphQL schema evolves frequently; pinning SDK versions is important for agent stability
- ⚠ Usage reporting is eventually consistent — a reported event may not immediately affect entitlement checks
- ⚠ Customer IDs must be pre-provisioned in Stigg before entitlement checks; lookups for unknown customers return a generic 'no access' response rather than an error
- ⚠ Webhook payloads for entitlement changes do not include the previous state, making diff-based logic difficult
